On September 6, 2022, Ashnikko took to her social media accounts to announce that there would not be a Halloweenie release that year due to her needing a break and also to put all her energy and focus into the finishing her debut album, WEEDKILLER[1], causing this song, the original Halloweenie V, to be scrapped. She wrote:
“ | just to soften the blow i’m just gonna tell you now there won’t be a halloweenie song this year because i’m literally ripping my hair out trying to finish this album and i have to focus!! it will be worth the wait i promise!! so grateful to you all for listening to my songsies, don’t be mad im sorryyyyyyyy | ” |

Lyrics[]
[Intro]
(Vocalization)
[Verse 1]
Monsters in the form of men (Yeah, yeah)
Kill me, I'll be born again (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Leave me while I mourn my friends (No, no)
Sharpen my talents for revenge
[Pre-Chorus]
In the creaking house
I've been screaming the wind
Bleed from the mouth
Let me see you grin
I want you to
[Chorus]
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Do they see if we did all your cheating?
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Shadows creep
It's the night of the banshee
It's the night of the banshee, yeah
[Verse 2]
Exorcism, they try but my spirit won't leave you
Fell from heaven, demidevil demons need food
Take possession, you speak in their tongues and you bleed blue
Go and tell 'em, no one will believe you
[Pre-Chorus]
In the creaking house
I've been screaming the wind
Bleed from the mouth
Let me see you grin
I want you to
[Chorus]
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Do they see if we did all your cheating?
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Shadows creep
It's the night of the banshee
It's the night of the banshee, yeah
[Bridge]
On a godly breath, I swore vengeance
I would fill your head with a banshee chorus
Grind my flesh, fold it tenfold
Build a bonfire, put you on it in that deep dark forest
[Chorus]
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Do they see if we did all your cheating?
Scream for me
E-e-e-e-e-e
Shadows creep
It's the night of the banshee
It's the night of the banshee, yeah
